Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) also named as massively parallel sequencing, is a powerful new tool that can be used for the complex diagnosis and intensive monitoring of infectious diseases in veterinary medicine. NGS technologies are also being increasingly used to study the aetiology, genomics, evolution and epidemiology of infectious disease, as well as host pathogen interaction, host immune response including responses to antimicrobial treatment and vaccination. NGS approaches can be used as primary tools for the study of disease outbreaks by the identification and follow-up of transmission routes, thereby helping in the identification of outbreak origins in zoonotic diseases. The above applications of next generation sequencing in disease and cancer diagnosis, genome characterization and viral diversity, viral metagenomics and host pathogen interaction study make it a powerful tool for detailed analysis of complex populations in a minimalistic period of time.
